A Country That Never Needed
to Try Very Hard to Be Wonderful
There is a particular quality of light here that you will not find anywhere else. A country of 188,000 lakes and 3.3 million saunas, where the silence of the forest is a kind of music, where Santa Claus has a real address on the Arctic Circle, and where everyday objects are made so beautifully they are passed from parents to children.
Finland has been voted the world's happiest country seven years in a row. The happiness is not in the statistics — it is in the birch trees, the lake water, and the sauna at the end of the day. Pick a door below and start exploring.
